Join me for an afternoon of great jazz at Caramoor Center for Music and the Arts in Katonah, New York!  This is an event we like to enjoy every year – sometimes we’ve attended during the day, sometimes the evening.

This year I invite members and guests to join me for the day.  Let’s pack a picnic to enjoy, performances take place in the Venetian Theater and throughout the gardens, there will be a full schedule to choose from.

Members are invited to join me in the Caramoor Members Jazz Lounge as well!

Curated by our friends at Jazz at Lincoln Center, Caramoor’s 24th annual Jazz Festival is for jazz enthusiasts of all ages. Headlined by legendary jazz pianist McCoy Tyner, the day-long festival throughout the grounds will feature a wide range of music—including interactive sessions for the kids, the infectious Cuban rhythms of the Pedritro Martinez Group, the innovative guitarist Mary Halvorson, and a centennial celebration of innovative jazz great Thelonious Monk.
